Let there be light – and there was Obama 1
8th Jul 2009
Hello lovely people
The Universe is about balance. People and this world are about division and separation. The news media show us the beautiful dance of separation on a daily basis.
For example, president Obama shows off his excellent eye-hand coordination by swatting a fly while being interviewed on television. The world is in awe of a president that can kill flies with his own hands – what was that again about small things amuse small minds? PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) are upset because a fly was killed publicly by a prominent person who thinks he is Buddha.
I recently heard a radio interview where one person complained about the blasphemous use of the name of God on television and radio. The person was quite adamant that the broadcaster had to act to root out this blasphemy which was quite offensive to Christians. Another person objected against the word blimey, because he had been told that the word originated from the expression “God blind me” and therefore the word blimey must also be blasphemous. Why is it that Christians always sound so whining when they complain about how unfairly the world treats them? Or is the bias in my ear?
Another person called in to demand freedom of speech and the right to say “Oh, my God” and Jesus whenever they please. A few more callers supported this stance because they are not Christians and see no reason to comply with the rules that Christians set for their lives.
Speaking of rules – a Jewish couple is suing their neighbours because of the installation of a light switch with motion sensors in the communal stairwell of the building that they live in. Their argument is that they are not allowed to light a fire on a Sabbath. When they step out of their flat on a Friday night and the light on the stairwell goes on, they believe it is a breach of their human rights. Apparently the problem can be resolved with a delayed circuit-breaker switch, a solution that was accepted by rabbis for a hospital in Jerusalem.
The editor of a Jewish community website said “They should not be putting the onus on their neighbours to change. It’s a bit arrogant really. It’s an embarrassment, it’s giving reasonable Jews a bad name.”
To be continued.
